As a therapist, I am direct, sensitive, and open-minded. Through this work, we can explore who you are while fostering a curiosity and understanding about who you have been. This shapes how we interact with the world and what may be troubling us. You are an essential partner in this work. I view therapy as an opportunity to co-create a space where we can lean into creativity, authenticity, and imagination; further clarify your wants and needs; and strengthen your ability to communicate all of the above.
It is through this process—and relationship—that you begin to trust your experience, giving it the attention and respect it deserves. There is relief in living as your true self, and I believe that psychotherapy acts as your guardrails on this sometimes bumpy, sometimes winding, and sometimes joyous journey.

I primarily practice relational psychodynamic psychotherapy, as this is where my education lies and what I have found to be most holistically transformative. Psychodynamic approaches work by uncovering feelings to help expand your internal experience and look at patterns that have occurred in your life from early on until now.
